  • Title: The pathogenesis of experimental Haemonchus longistipes infection in camels.
    Author: Arzoun IH, Hussein HS, Hussein MF.
    Journal: Vet Parasitol; 1984 Jan; 14(1):43-53. PubMed ID: 6538365.
    Abstract:
    The pathogenesis and clinical signs of Haemonchus longistipes infection were studied in four experimentally infected camels two of which were adults and the other two were young. In the former animals, an acute infection developed, characterized by mucoid diarrhoea, anorexia, anaemia, loss of body weight, oedema of the lower parts of the limbs, general malaise and death at 8-10 weeks post-infection. In the two younger camels, a less dramatic disease was encountered with less severe symptoms and no oedema, but also terminating fatally at 19-20 weeks post-infection. Parasitological, haematological and biochemical parameters were determined during the course of the infection and were mostly comparable with those usually encountered in haemonchosis of other animals.
